Right there under your tape is your screw and nuts.. I am about 85% positive of that..THis is where you will want to open the wires and do the ohms reading

If it does read, we want to watch for a change as the truck warms up.. If this happens, we will have to consider the module being the problem. I have to tell you though, and I am sorry for not saying this in the first place.. I dont know if you can buy just componets, or if you have to buy everything??
We can ask Clay though here once we have it figured out..

If you check your sensor and it ends up being bad, let me know, i've got a brand new one laying around that you can have it you need it. My truck already had one on it for the EGT gauge, and when I got the water/meth kit from snow, it came with another sensor, I just tapped into my existing one and just saved the new one. If you need it, its all yours, I dont really need it.
